Frankie & Johnny |
Frankie and Johnny was sweethearts |
at least thats the way the story goes |
Frankie bought everything for Johnny |
from his sports car to his Ivy League clothes |
He was a man alright, oh but he was doing her wrong |
just to show you what can happen |
A friend came running to Frankie |
she said you know I wouldn’t tell you no lie |
I saw your man riding in his Jaguar |
with a chick named Nellie Blye |
He was your man honey, oh and he was doing you wrong |
let me tell the story |
Frankie ran around the corner |
and peeked in a swinging place |
there she saw Johnny with the woman |
he had his arms around her waist |
aw… he was a man alright but Frankie could see that he was |
doing her wrong. |
And oh let me tell you |
Frankie reached down in her pocketbook |
and up with a long forty-four |
she shot once, twice, three times and |
Johnny fell to the hard wood floor |
aw… he was a man alright but Frankie shot him because he was |
doing her wrong |
But the last thing he told her was |
Frankie, you know I love you |
Why? |
Honey why did you do that? |
Frankie. |
I was telling her about you |
Frankie. |
you know I love you |
Frankie. |
you know that I love you |
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
Now Frankie, you know darn well that I love you |
Frankie. |
I’ll always love you baby |
Frankie. |
you know I can’t do without you |
Frankie. |
you know I love you |
and I know, I know I was doing |
you wrong.wrong.wrong.wrong |
Now Frankie. |
you know darn well that I love you |
Frankie…(song fades and ends) |
